Thinking about running off a few northern soul Ts. Looking for a few quirky ideas.

Not too keen on the following design concepts

Record labels - bit dull

SSDCT - very dull

Black power fist - bit embarrassing

Anybody got something a bit different?

Potential design attached - posted by Nick Hackett in a completely unrelated thread, is sort of the direction I'm heading.........what do you think?

On an almost completely separate note I noticed a couple of people hankering after 'keep it vinyl stickers'.

Its fairly easy for me to get stuff like that produced, so if there is a specific design you need recreating, send me the details. I'll run off a few, you send the money to your favourite charity.

Lets be having it....

I saw some wicked Blues Artists T's in the States several years ago, these were really classy black shirts with the artist image pretty much covering the front of the shirt in like a white print but it was an actual image Sonny Boy, Little Walter, John Lee Hooker etc., maybe a similar idea could be used say rare album covers i.e. Artistics LP on Okeh, Hestitations Kapp LP, Metros RCA LP, Darrell Banks Atco LP and so on, i think people being a little older would go for something a little more classy than the 'Keep The Faith' Black fist kinda design which was great twenty five years ago but a little old hat circa 2006, i think if you make them unique and perhaps more designer orientated then they will prove popular.

Cheers for comments Mark. Yes want to avoid - 'Keep The Faith' Black fist kinda design.......lads at work have seen it & constantly ask when I'm playing a bit of northern - "is the work of the black hand gang?"

Mind you when I change it over to a bit of a modern they comment - "did Huggy Bear just walk in?"

Happy to look at a few album covers, just need high res tiffs, pdfs etc.

There was also no need for the catholic church to ban education in the dark ages & burn 3000 women at the stake for witchcraft either.
